Book The Dramatic Works of Thomas Dekker  Volume 2  The Honest Whore Pts 1 and 2  The Magnificent Entertainment Given to King James  Westward Ho  Northward Ho  The Whore of Babylon

Download or read book The Dramatic Works of Thomas Dekker Volume 2 The Honest Whore Pts 1 and 2 The Magnificent Entertainment Given to King James Westward Ho Northward Ho The Whore of Babylon written by Thomas Dekker and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1955 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This was the first edition of Dekker's plays to appear in print since the late nineteenth century. Thus, for many years prior, Dekker had been the least accessible of the prominent Elizabethan dramatists, with the result that his anthologized plays had received undue attention at the expense of other highly readable works of the second rank. Professor Fredson Bowers here presents a critical old-spelling text of the ordinarily accepted canon, together with a few works not collected previously but which seem to merit inclusion in an edition of Dekker's plays. The text of the complete plays is in four volumes and a complementary four-volume set contains detailed introductions and notes to all the plays. In a general textual introduction Professor Bowers sets forth a reasoned account of his editorial method and procedures for a critical edition according to bibliographical principles. Separate introductions provide textual analyses of the individual plays, including the circumstances of publication and of textual transmission. Apparatus for each play consists of textual notes, tables of press-variants derived from collation of a substantial number of copies of original editions, lists of editorial emendations to the copy-text, and historical collations of all early editions.
